Hello fellas,

Just checking in to see if anyone is interested in a full set of OEM calipers that are powder coated red. I would like to integrate a core exchange so I can keep the rotation going. You will end up using your current pads/pins and e brake motors.

Asking $350 plus the ride and cores returned.

That's correct. Got this site from a friend of mine who is very active in here. As for validation and reference, anyone is welcome to look at my eBay feedback under screen name rockford53 .

As most of you know, the Facebook groups are somewhat of a joke when assuming a class of fellas would have interest in a quality product. 

Cheers!

Your friend should've warned you about the forum rules for selling.  There's a marketplace section, and you need a minimum of 50 posts to post a for sale thread there. 

 

With that said, I like the calipers.  Might be something I do later in down the road.  Maybe this summer while wife is out of country and I can drive her car while mine is getting worked on.

Thanks for the info, I'll keep that in mind. No intention of violation here. With a set like this, it'd only take a couple hours TOTAL to swap all 4 and bleed. One afternoon and you're good(2-3 beer job🤣). No dealer required for the bleed either.

That just ruined it for me.  I don't drink beer.  How many whiskey hardballs do you think this job would take?

Transient,

I value your input and knowledge on this forum, but you just lost ALL respect from me. 😁 🍻

Sorry guys.  Just never liked the taste.  I've tried many, but none of them I liked.

 

Micro brew, ales, IPA, piss water (aka mass produced beer like Miller Lite), tap, can, bottle, keg, Fat Tire, Blue Moon, Founding Fathers, San Adams, Yuengling, Leinenkeugels, so on and so forth...  I've tried, hoping something was different, but I still haven't found one I like.  Whiskey does it for me, and I don't mind drinking it straight. Seems to me the more expensive it is the better it tastes.

 

My wife is the same way.  She doesn't like beer.  If she's not working on a wine cooler, twisted tea, or hard lemonade, she's working on the rum.

BEER!! I agree for some it is an acquired taste, took me several handful of tries before being accustomed to it.  Now it's whiskey and scotch!

Is this the "right" red to match the AT4 / Trail Boss tow hooks?!

    • Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose  
    • I have a basic 2026 1500 WT  (2.7L/4WD reg cab shorttbed). Comfy, generally happy with electronics/radio - but is there a way I can add switches to steering wheel right-side position (curr. empty) so I can adjust volume, push phone button to voice dial, etc? Bill W San Jose  
    • The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.
    • So I purchased the Range unit for my 2026 and I am seeing different locations suggested for the ECM . Can anyone confirm wither under hood, left side or right side or behind the wheelwell?
    • Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
